Necessary Lyrics

Artist: Boogie Down Productions
Album: By All Means Necessary

When some get together and think of rap they tend to think ofviolenceBut when they are challenged on some rock group the result is alwayssilenceEven before the rock and roll era violence played a big part in musicIt's all according to your meaning of violence and how or in which wayyou use itNo it's not violent to show in movies the destruction of the humanbodyBut yes of course it's violent to protect yourself at a partyAnd, oh no, it's not violent when under the christmas tree is alook-alike gunBut, yes, of course it's violent to have an album like KRS-OneBy all means necessary, it's time to end the hypocrisyWhat I call violence, I can't do , but your kind of violence isstopping meBy all means necessary, the rap audience must grow upThe same type of fightin' we do, they do except we've got nothing toblow upIt doesn`t matter if you win or lose, it's only how good you play thegameThis is the oldest sneak attack, because it takes away our senses togainIf all I do is play the game then I am just mediocreWe strive to be the best we can be, not to just get overSome people say that life on a whole is serious and nothing is funnyThat's only if you base your life around competition and moneyYeah, I'm making some money, he's making some money, but none of thesethings are necessitiesWhat I find to be a necessity is controlling a positive destinyWith this, money, fame, glory and credit will come in timeThe people down with me know this every minute they hear me sayinrhymesI got some friends, I got some allies like Stet, and Big Daddy KaneThey know that by all means necessary that peace is the name of thisgameWhether peace by war, or peace by peace, the reality of peace is scaryBut we must get there, one way or another, by all means necessary.
